Here, we present a series of experimental studies to encapsulate ultrasmall gold nanoparticles into mesoporous metal oxide via an in situ self-assembly method. Notably, the 2.0Au@mZnO catalyst (∼2.0 nm gold nanoparticles loading on mesoporous ZnO nanospheres) shows excellent catalytic activity for indane oxidation (12…

The electrochemical corrosion behavior and the semiconducting properties of the passive film formed on a coil spring steel were investigated in a buffer solution at pH 9. The anodic dissolution was mitigated, and the passive film grew faster for the spring steel with compressive residual stress than the one without st…

ABSTRACT A wormlike chain model for rod type blocks in a rod‐coil diblock copolymer is implemented in the self‐consistent field theory (SCFT) formalism. A pseudo‐spectral method is used to solve for the single‐chain partition function of this copolymer system. Orientation degrees of freedom are discretized using Lebed…

Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) is an established unit operation in the manufacturing process of many products. However, development and integration of multistage LLE for new products and separation routes is often hindered and is probably more cost intensive due to a lack of robust development strategies and reliable…

We observed four Gomphonema taxa with a high abundance of Janus cells, which are cells that have valves of two different morphologies, also termed heterovalvar cells. The specimens were collected from a habitat with periodic drying, alternating with standing water. A high proportion of Gomphonema Janus cells (up to 20…

A Pt/CeO2-ZrO2-Bi2O3/SBA-16 catalyst was prepared to realize highly selective oxidation of glycerol to produce dihydroxyacetone (DHA). An active oxygen supply from the CeO2-ZrO2-Bi2O3 promoter effectively oxidized glycerol to produce DHA under moderate conditions (i.e. at 30°C without applied pressure). After a 4 h ca…

The presence of epizoic diatoms on the skin of a variety of large marine vertebrates, such as whales and dolphins, has been often reported in the scientific literature. The first observations of an algal growth over on the skin of cetaceans were probably made around 1920. Later studies showed the presence of a new spe…
